We've been busy putting up closet organizers to unpack clothes, putting handles on drawers and doors in the kitchen so we could actually open them, and taking a quick trip to Ikea to exchange the wrong drawer fronts for the right ones. Some may see that four hour trip as a hardship, but it was one I happily endured. I like to think of myself as an optimist, and honestly who doesn't think a free cup of coffee and $1.00 frozen yogurt is worth a four hour drive?
Enjoy the pics of the first floor. Everyone else is asleep and I just got inspired to post, so these pictures are hot off the presses. No staging or photo-shopping here folks. This is the real deal in real time.

| We will have 2 upper corner cabinets that will be turned into the laundry shoot. This is not top on the priority list as much as the girls would like it to be. They are already devising ways to send secret messages down the laundry shoot. |
 |
| On the right we plan to do some sort of built in storage/locker system for coats and shoes. You'll be hearing about a lot of "plans" We dream big around these parts. |
 |
| This is the pantry/message area. My "plan" for this area is to paint the back splash area with chalk board paint and paint the cupboards white. |
 |
| The kitchen is great. We still need to put up shelves on either side of the range hood. |
 |
| I'm thinking of putting a moveable island in the middle of the kitchen. I don't know if that would be overkill? Any thoughts on the subject? |
 |
| I'm am so excited about all of the counter space. I can't stop putting things all over it. It's a blessing and a curse a the same time. |
 |
| Entry way. I have big plans for this area. I just don't know what they are yet. |
 |
| Living Room. |

| I went ahead and hung up some of my favorite things. I may have jumped the gun on this, but it makes me happy! |
